Beautiful home, lovely decor, comfortable furnishings. Wonderful outdoor settings, decks with amazing views of the water and sunsets. We had a great time hiking all the trails nearby. (within 30/35 minutes). Thank you for being pet friendly!
Beautiful house with plenty of room. Great views and family enjoyed the house and beach area very much. Nice and clean house with just enough nautical charm. We enjoyed our stay.
This was a return visit for us. Lovely, spacious, well-appointed home in a very private, quiet location. It is a great home base for exploring the area - Cutler, Lubec, Campobello, Eastport, Cobscook Bay, Schoodic Point. Lots of hiking trails for all abilities with stunning scenery. Machias is convenient for restaurants and food shopping, gas stations, etc. The owner and the property manager are terrific & very helpful. Highly recommend!
We love Maine summers and Jenny's home is perfect for our family. We look forward to the relaxation and getting away from things for a while. The view out the numerous windows and doors in the back towards Holmes Bay is spectacular. You can see the tides come in and out and the view faces almost due west for great sunset views every evening. The home has all the supplies we need to be comfortable for the week. I'd recommend the home for any family looking for a quiet escape to nature.This was our second consecutive year staying here and we've already booked again for next year! That should tell you all you need to know as to what we think of this home! We're looking forward to next year already.
We had a fantastic stay! The house was clean, quiet and comfortable and waking up to a fresh sea breeze every morning was energizing. We went swimming nearly every day and took several area hikes. We also loved the proximity to Canada, and did a day trip to Campobello Island. Our only complaint: We couldn't stay longer! We can't wait to come back.
We had a great stay with our pup! Great location, very private with great views of the bay but still close to town to grab groceries and dinner. The house was well equipped with everything we needed and very clean. They even had toys for our dog which she loved! The best part was sitting on the deck watching the sunrise or sunset. We hope to be back soon!
This house has it all and more, from a pancake griddle and ice cream scoop, to plenty of tissues and toilet paper, to puzzles and marshmallow roasting sticks, to all items needed for cooking lobster and other meals. It had everything we could possibly have needed. The property manager was very responsive when we discovered that the disposal wasnât working and got it fixed within a day.
I can't say enough good things about this place. My husband and our two pups stayed here for a week for our 10 year anniversary and had the BEST time. The house has everything you could ever desire and was WELL equipped for cooking lobster meals at home as well as very pet friendly with a basket of toys our pups loved to rummage through. Everything is exactly as pictured; kitchen well stocked, very clean, SUPER comfortable master bed & couches, good communication with host/manager, and beautiful views for days. Things to bring: muck boots for exploring the low tide (they do provide a few sizes), bug spray, rain gear for moody weather, and recommend booties for doggy paws (it is rockier and more sharp shells than we realized at low tide and our poor pup got a minor cut to his paw at the beach). The owner even provided a set of doggy booties we wish we had used. Highly recommend doing a lobster tour of the cutler harbour, we had an AMAZING time and they sent us home with some lobsters and crabs, talk about fresh! Also highly recommend the coastal trail at Quoddy head State Park (incredible views) and Lubec brewing company for a beer after, and any of the hikes on the bold coast (boot head was amazing!) are otherworldly, last the public house has AMAZING food & cocktails for a fancier dinner. We are so grateful to have stayed here would definitely come back. We will miss those sunsets on the back deck! Thank you for an amazing stay!
From seeing the turkey cross the driveway at the turkey crossing sign and then getting to watch the Doe eating grass from the lawn and then posing for a pic from the front door, what a great location!! We won't hesitate to stay here again when in the area.
We stayed here while visiting family from the area. It was amazing. Plenty of space, clean and right on the beach. We did not experience a single issue from booking to check out. Sunsets were beautiful and all the driving distances listed were accurate.
This was a perfect, private getaway. The views were absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunset and the only neighbors we saw were a couple wandering turkeys. The house is extremely well kept with some of the most plush carpets I've ever felt. I will definitely try to stay here again, hopefully in the summer to enjoy the rocky beach below!
This property is perfect for a family getaway with pets. The owner was very responsive to all our questions. The property had a lot to offer: Beautiful views. Large bedrooms. Access to the beach below. Lots of land with privacy. Close to a small town. We took their advice and got lobsters from Captain Matt's. They were delicious!
There is one thing that could be improved: the beds could be more comfortable. Adding mattress toppers might help. We would definitely come back!
The property is 500% as listed; private, in the woods, steps down to ocean, spacious and comfortable.
We are a family of 4, loved the puzzles, foosball, outdoor space and indoors had everything we needed.
We had a fun power outage adventure due to high winds. Jenny responded immediately with where to find flashlights and a timeframe of when it would be back on.
Highly recommend this property, we never wanted to leave the house!
This was a great house and location for a get-away weekend with some friends. The layout is great with large, comfortable bedrooms with good mattresses, a big, open space to gather, a nice kitchen, and a game room in the basement. The tucked away location was also great! Plenty of (rocky) beach to explore. We'd definitely stay there again.
We had a wonderful week relaxing and catching up. This beautiful home is so quiet and peaceful youâll find it easy to relax and rejuvenate. Itâs situated conveniently to allow for short day trips and still make it back in time for breathtaking sunsets and beautiful nights looking at the stars, our favorite part of each day.
From the first visit before covid I have been trying to stay at this house again as it was perfect for my family. I am 87 so knew the downstairs bedroom and bath was perfect for me and also knew there were extra beds in the other bedrooms. So this year it was my daughter and her husband and another daughter with her daughter. I enjoyed the new deck and watched the tides and knew I would be happy to just stay there if the others wanted to do something I was not able to do.
We had an incredible stay at this charming summer house in Maine! The home is not only comfortable and cozy but also exceptionally well-stocked with everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. The location is simply unbeatable â right on the water with stunning views of the bay that took our breath away every morning.
One of the highlights of our stay was watching seals play from the deck. We even kayaked out to them, which was an unforgettable experience! The rocky beach was perfect for fishing and launching our kayaks. It truly felt like a private retreat, yet all the best outdoor activities were right at our doorstep.
The house itself is beautifully maintained and thoughtfully equipped, making it easy to settle in and enjoy from the moment we arrived. If you're looking for a peaceful and picturesque escape with all the comforts of home, this is the place to be. We can't wait to come back!
